7319.90.90.00 - Other

This category, HTS 7319.90.90.00, encompasses "Other" articles of iron or steel that fall under the broader heading of sewing needles, knitting needles, bodkins, crochet hooks, embroidery stilettos, and similar hand-use articles, as well as safety pins and other pins of iron or steel not elsewhere specified or included. It serves as a residual category for items that fit the general description of the heading but are not specifically enumerated in other subheadings.

This subheading is distinguished from its sibling, HTS 7319.90.10.00, which specifically covers sewing, darning, or embroidery needles. Therefore, HTS 7319.90.90.00 would include items like crochet hooks, bodkins, embroidery stilettos, safety pins, and other miscellaneous pins of iron or steel that do not fit the definition of sewing, darning, or embroidery needles. The key differentiator lies in the specific function and form of the article.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Classification within this subheading hinges on determining that an article is made of iron or steel, is a hand-use implement of the type described (needles, hooks, stilettos, etc.), or is a pin, and that it is not elsewhere specified or included within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, particularly not fitting the criteria for sewing, darning, or embroidery needles. Practical examples include a set of crochet hooks, a collection of assorted safety pins, or individual bodkins for needlecraft.
